Thank you kind sir ( mr.grimshaw) as for Broady i too have stood on that spot on the USS. Missouri with my late brother. I don't know whether or not you know this Broady when we were there ,there was this very old veteran, who told us a story and this is it.

He said he remembers the day well and apparently just before the dignitary's were due ,suddenly a cry went out " were can we do the signing "??? So he said people were running here and there looking for something that they could use , at the last hour a sailor came forth from the kitchen area with a large table from the cook's mess and they found a cloth and threw it over the top and there you have it the signing of the end of WW2 against the JAPS was signed on a cook's table such an important document the old vet could not stop laughing my bro and me too! I thought that was a special thing that sailor had witnessed ( god bless him ) just thought you might like that Broady....
